Well it seems like CHW at NYM are going to luck out and be able to play as they are right in-between 2 areas of rain (not sure if this will bring Matt Harvey any luck though). Let me show you:
1 PM simulated radar:
Notice all the rain from associated with Tropical Depression Bonnie out over eastern Long Island. That looks like it will stay there. And at the same time, a cold front is approaching from the west. By evening, this is what the radar should look like:
8 PM:
You really could not pick a better timing/placement for this game to play this afternoon. EXTREMELY LOW CHANCE OF PPD/LOW CHANCE OF ANY TYPE OF DELAY(S)
A few widely scattered tstorms near SF at ATL. I will watch the radar near this game but right now nothing looks too threatening. Here is the simulated radar for 1 PM:
EXTREMELY LOW CHANCE OF A PPD; LOW CHANCE OF ANY TYPE OF DELAY(S)
Similar to the game in Queens, BOS at BLT will see rain associated with Bonnie nearby. According to the model I prefer, the rain makes its closest approach around 2 PM:
Worrisome how close the rain is. What I have to remember here is that models are just a guide, they are wrong all the time. So, lets look at the current radar:
Not bad at all! Makes me trust the model a bit less. LOW CHANCE OF A PPD, LOW TO MAYBE MODERATE CHANCE OF ANY TYPE OF DELAY(S)
A few scattered showers/tstorms will be around CIN at COL. Here is the 4 PM simulated radar:
As you can see, there should not be big issues here. EXTREMELY LOW CHANCE OF A PPD; LOW CHANCE OF ANY TYPE OF DELAY(S)
WSH at PHL will be in the same weather setup as NYM and BLT, as Bonnie's rain will be to the east and a cold front is approaching from the west. Here is what the simulated radars look like:
7 PM
8 PM:
It looks like only a matter of time until that line of heavy rain pushes into Citizen's Bank Park. According to this model, it is sometime around 9 or10 PM. LOW CHANCE OF PPD, MODERATE CHANCE OF A DELAY AFTER 9 PM
TB at KC will see a few tstorms scattered about. Nothing organized as can be seen on the 8 PM simulated radar:
EXTREMELY LOW CHANCE OF A PPD, LOW CHANCE OF ANY TYPE OF DELAY(S)
-As always, when the Rockies play at home, the advantage of extremely low air density at Coors Field simply can not be ignored (CIN at COL)
-Summer temps will be found in for SF at ATL.
-MIN at OAK will see temps a few degrees warmer than normal and a strong wind blowing out to right.
-LAD at CHC will experience warm temps at Wrigley Field.
-WSH at PHL will see mild temps and a light breeze blowing out to center.
-Warm with a breeze blowing out to left for TB at KC.
-Especially compared to other stadiums, DET at LAA will be played in cool temperatures.
